e.l.f Studio Cream Blush : Heartbreaker $6.00 Size 0.53oz/15g

It seems like most of posts I make are 'pink' related. Pink lipsticks, pink this and pink that. I thought I love every colors equally however I guess I have tiny more love towards pink compare to others.

Anyway back to the point, I purchased this one quite long ago with other e.l.f products but honestly I didn't even remember that it was in my vanity drawer until few days ago.

I have used stick cream blush but never tried any cream blush that is in a little container. I like the appearance of its container however it's way too big when I think of the product inside. Also the color on their website shows it as kind of coralish peach when the actual product is purely pink. I could have got mad over the difference of the color, but I only spend $6 so I really didn't mind.
You can use fingertips or stipple brush to apply it. I use my fingers instead of stipple brush because when I tried to apply it with stipple brush, It really didn't grab any color. The blush has like play doh feel when I touched it. It really doesn't have 'cream' blush feeling which I expected it to be more watery/creamy. Somehow the color was hard to get on my skin and when I tired it, it just gives a powder blush look.

To be honest, the color wasn't my taste and to me, it didn't really feel like 'cream' blush at all. Also the color was really hard to get on my skin - I had to apply some good amount of layers over and over to get the color. I'm just glad it wasn't a pricy product.

I know this makes me sound like a snob but I'm always suspicious of make up products when they're too cheap, the quality is just not gonna be there most of the time. :( Anyway, thanks for sharing, though! Just started following you! xx

I was so excited when I saw the lil pic in my newsfeed because I have been pining after a YSL cream blush that is the exact same colour. I am gutted that it didn't work out for you - it just goes to show that sometimes paying a bit extra gets you the good quality make up you want.
